Well, that was fixed in 2.8 and should still be fixed in 3.0. If not, I would like to hear about it... > Also, what about using BIOS/WMI machine information for > automatically installing drivers?

But scanning for PCI devices and/or SMBIOS data is possible in principle. It basically amounts to porting the Linux "lspci" and/or "dmidecode" utilities to the DJGPP environment. That would be a neat contribution if anybody feels like some serious hacking. As an alternative, I have read that Bart's boot disk does automatic network card detection. However that works, it could presumably be generalized beyond network hardware to let Unattended include all the right drivers automatically. - Pat ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ unattended-info mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/unattended-info
